Free panel discussion with climate science leaders: Thursday, Jan. 29 at 6:30 p.m. at New England Aquarium’s Simons Theatre
The New England Aquarium’s Lowell Lecture Series presents an in-depth conversation with some of New England’s top weather and climate science leaders in partnership with The Boston Globe and moderated by the Globe’s Lead Meteorologist Ken Mahan. New England’s seasons are shifting dramatically because of climate change—warmer winters, erratic springs, hotter summers, and muted autumns—as bouts of extreme weather become more prevalent. These increasingly unpredictable weather patterns are redefining the region’s identity, blurring the lines between our distinctive seasons. The conversation will explore the science behind these changes.
Thursday, January 29 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. with a cash bar available. A reception will follow the panel discussion from 7:30 to 8:00 p.m.
In person at the New England Aquarium’s Simons Theatre, 1 Central Wharf, Boston. The lecture will also be livestreamed via Zoom.
Register here for in-person and virtual attendance to the event. Advance registration is required. This New England Aquarium Lowell Lecture Series event is presented in partnership with The Boston Globe through the generosity of the Lowell Institute.
